Of course the Clippers lose two straight as they return to face the Lakers.

I swear the Lakers luck. They either face a team that is due for a win or they are getting a player back from injury.

If the Lakers force the Clippers to play a half court game and Dwight and Pau actually look for their shots and aren't so hesitant that Nash thinks twice about passing it to them we should beat the Clippers.

Their bench is basically "Jamaal Crawford do everything" take him out of the equation means Barnes and Odom have to beat you.... no worry there.

But then again Kobe pretty much has said all this in terms of why he isn't worried about them.

he also said "they will be up to face us, winning streak or not" so if they come in with an edge and we come in with an edge it will be an entertaining game where both teams can give it their all And It will be enjoyable!

of course if we don't come in with an edge they will blow us out 105 to 93 while running us out of the gym and ESPN will have a field day with it.
